• Abstract: Diffusion models have become increasingly popular for generative modeling due to their ability to generate high-quality samples. This has unlocked exciting new possibilities for solving inverse problems, especially in image restoration and reconstruction, by treating diffusion models as unsupervised priors. This survey provides a comprehensive overview of methods that utilize pre-trained diffusion models to solve inverse problems without requiring further training. We introduce taxonomies to categorize these methods based on both the problems they address and the techniques they employ. We analyze the connections between different approaches, offering insights into their practical implementation and highlighting important considerations. We further discuss specific challenges and potential solutions associated with using latent diffusion models for inverse problems. This work aims to be a valuable resource for those interested in learning about the intersection of diffusion models and inverse problems.

  In inverse problems, it is increasingly popular to use pre-trained diffusion models as plug-and-play priors. Most existing methods rely on privileged information such as derivative, pseudo-inverse, or full knowledge about the forward model. We propose Ensemble Kalman Diffusion Guidance (EnKG) for diffusion models, a derivative-free approach that can solve inverse problems by only accessing forward model evaluations and a pre-trained diffusion model prior.

  Diffusion models have emerged as the leading paradigm in generative modeling, excelling in various applications. Despite their success, these models often misalign with human intentions, generating outputs that may not match text prompts or possess desired properties. Inspired by the success of alignment in tuning large language models, recent studies have investigated aligning diffusion models with human expectations and preferences.

• A Variational Perspective on Solving Inverse Problems with Diffusion Models [101.831766524264]
  Inverse tasks can be formulated as inferring a posterior distribution over data. This is however challenging in diffusion models since the nonlinear and iterative nature of the diffusion process renders the posterior intractable. We propose a variational approach that by design seeks to approximate the true posterior distribution.
